Cow peas also known as Black eyed peas or farm for Alfalfa hey. They build up the soil by fixing the nitrogen instead of using it like grasses. Grasses of any kind deplete nitrogen. But if sand is the problem maybe nothing can fix that. But the lack of humis or biologal matter can be fixes with Cowpeas this can be mixed with sorgum that gives a stem to climb, this stuff is turned in green the tonnage per acres varies on the water it gets. If you want to doit for several years plow in with seed in pods then reseeding will not be requried, Note there are low water virities of this seed.
